These are all such classics. The guy in the MagnaVolt ad just does it perfectly. When he turns and says, "And it won't run down your battery." it is just the perfect commercial moment.

Well, the ozone was destroyed according to the commercial, but total loss of the ozone and life really can't exist. Anyways, what I laugh hard about is the Surgeon General's warning. "Frequent use will cause skin cancer!" Sounds like the side effects of many pharmaceutical drugs.
That was also another part of the satire. An anti-theft system so convoluted and dangerous that it was pretty much guaranteed to kill somebody....but in the capitalist RoboCop society of lawyers and consumerism, big companies would pay hush-money to "protect" their intellectual property. 🤣

I like how the Magnavolt could easily be the Magna Hold The Guy Until The Police Arrive but is instead programed to commit murder.
same result either way
Not only that when the owner comes to the car they can just discard the person on the streets for who knows how long before discovered.
Its more of a deterrent that way
"No need to bother the police".
